Oyster Plant with Celery or Corn

Use ⅓ or ½ cooked celery or corn in recipe for stewed oyster plant.

Any of these dishes may be served as a second course at dinner with beaten biscuit with or without ripe olives.

When parsley is fresh, wash, shake and keep in a thick paper sack near the ice. When withered, put at once into ice water until refreshed.

To dry, pick off the leaves and stand in a warm place. It is better than not any when fresh is not obtainable.

The parsnip is another vegetable not good until after heavy frosts, and is much sweeter and richer in flavor when left in the ground until spring.
